Southeast Ohio Fishing Report - January 31st, 2013

Posted on January 31, 2013

Lake Logan (Hocking County)

It’s a mixed bag at Logan with anglers pulling in a few saugeyes, crappies, and even catfish. Numbers have been inconsistent at best. A few lucky anglers are vertical jigging around areas of cover with shiners and minnows to produce a bite.

Belmont Lake (Belmont County)

District 4 Division of Wildlife employees a few years back sank 20 cribs and 200 Christmas trees for fish structure in this lake, which is part of Barkcamp State Park. Belmont has an excellent rating for both largemouth bass and channel catfish and an excellent rating for bluegills.

Bill Anderson spends much of his time on the Little Juniata River. If he is not fly-fishing for the river’s abundant wild brown trout, he is monitoring pollution or scouting out the next location for a habitat-improvement project.
